Writer in Residence Program

On Wednesday 14 May, Carmel College had the pleasure of hosting guest author Victoria Carless for morning tea and an engaging conversation with our Writer in Residence group. These talented students have been diligently working on individual short stories for an upcoming competition. Victoria provided invaluable feedback and shared insights on various creative writing topics. We extend our heartfelt thanks to Victoria for her time and generosity. A special congratulations to Isabelle T., who received a signed copy of Victoria's latest novel, Lani and the Universe.

Mother’s Day Craft

In celebration of Mother’s Day, the library offered students the chance to create gem-art coasters. We hope these colourful creations brought joy to their recipients.

Library Hours and Use of Space

Please note that the library opens at 8am, and supervision begins at this time. We have observed some students entering the library before 8am, so please remind them to check the time before arriving.

The library offers a variety of spaces for different activities, including quiet areas for individual work and lively spaces for board and card games. It is important that students use each space appropriately to ensure everyone can enjoy the library.

Overdue Resources

There are many overdue library resources dating back to March. Students have been reminded to return these items. Next week, parents and caregivers will be notified if their student has any overdue resources.
